Programme Overview<\/span><\/h3><\/div><\/header>
<\/div>
<\/p>\n

The Community Care Fund Elderly Dental Assistance Programme aims to provide removable dentures and related dental services to elderly persons with financial difficulties to help improve their chewing ability. Since July 2, 2024, the programme scope has been expanded so that eligible elderly persons may receive dental check-ups, scaling and polishing, tooth extractions, fillings, X-ray examinations, removal of bridges or crowns, and root canal treatment even if they are unfit for denture fitting. This enhancement encourages eligible elderly persons to manage dental diseases at an early stage by opting for other preventive and curative dental services, thereby retaining their natural teeth as much as possible and avoiding tooth extractions and denture fittings.<\/p>\n

Eligible elderly can apply and arrange first appointment in person at district service units, including elderly centers, community centers, and dental clinics that accept applications.<\/p>\n

If you need information on local service units, please contact our clinic.<\/p>\n
